I have had the 2005 issue of Bon Appetite with a Flag on this recipe for -- well, 5 years ! Finally baked it today and wondered if anyone had posted on Zaar -- Surprise-Surprise -- already here ! It is a peculiar preparation, 'specially the part about "folding in the vegetable oil". It truly is a lovely, tender cake, and would serve anywhere where pound cake may be incorporated -- as in a trifle -- without the glaze. Thanks for posting -- I can now pitch my old magazine copy !!

Brought this to a community gathering and it was gone in 1 hour! I wasn't sure about putting the oil in last but kept stirring it in. It looked cuddled but became very slightly translucent and smooth as I continued stirring. For my first loaf, I used the baking sheet but for my second, I took it out halfway through. I think the temperature was a little high as I use a fan oven. I'd lower the temperature to 160C/320F or even 150C/302F and bake it longer. I used Tangerine Jelly neat as the glaze. I am so glad I made it! Thank you for posting it!
